[BHV] question....

[William Lodico]

Brenda's got it right.  One way you can lower the initial misery is  
to stretch the warm up to about 10 minutes of just pushing until it's  
not fun, then backing off, and repeating the process.  It's easier to  
do this on the bike than when running.  To stop pushing the run until  
it's not fun, I have to walk;  but on the bike you just back off a  
notch or two and you're still biking.

Tom,

It's just your muscles warming up, is all.  Only 2 miles???  Sheesh,  
it usually takes me about 10!  :)

I'm no expert on how muscles work the hows and why's.  Could someone  
please tell me why that the first 2 miles of my rides ( all rides) my  
legs will burn to the point of unbearable.  No matter how much I warm  
up and stretch.  But after the 2 miles, I'm able to ride endlessly  
without effort hills or flat, in the wind it doesn't matter.  PLease  
help me with this "burning" question
thanz
